Nestled in a serene valley above the river Chater, this grand Tudor house was originally commissioned by Thomas Cromwell on the site of a former priory. Cromwell acquired the estate during the Dissolution of the Monasteries but enjoyed it only briefly before his execution in 1540. Known as Launde, indicating a clearing in the Rutland forest, the house currently serves as a Christian retreat and conference centre for the Leicester and Peterborough dioceses of the Church of England.

Fabulous Church with some very old features. Usually open. Belton-in-Rutland was a settlement in the Leighfield forest which explains it's precise square layout, with the houses used like wagon trains circled around a clearing to protect livestock
